I had experienced this before. If you haven't done the shutdown properly, before starting the upgrade, this can happen. That means the disk is not in a proper state! Now you exit the installer and execute fsck and then restart the installation with the command install-solaris.
If the reason for "Upgrade" screen to not appear is because of inconsistent disk state, then this time you will get the "Upgrade" screen.
